Lol I was thinking wtf how can you make 🇯🇲
Same
Guys help, I accidentally made a clone of Jamaica
@@JimboCantSleep atleast we have bob marley
Ikr
@@firephoenixmusic2 at least we have more marijuana
This is called zobo in Nigeria and instead of sugar, we use pineapples and ginger as a natural sweetener and extra kick. It's really good
Yasss ❤️ delicious 😋
Yes
Jamaicans put lots of ginger in their hibiscus aka sorel drink. But adding some pineapple, which we grow plenty of sounds good too. Yum!
Beta pikin
Ooo sounds delicious either way
Here's how to make Jamaica. It's basically a nation near Haiti and Cuba. It's a very popular country in the Carribean.
Jamaica kulfi 🇯🇲
You know saturday is my cheat day
@@veenibik336 so first you start with heavy cream milk solids and sweet and condensed milk until the texture is pretty thin
@@BikelifeJuan then you can add your jamaica and blend
@@BikelifeJuan i think you meant "sweetened" not "sweet and" lol
Fun fact , hibiscus tea has the highest amount of antioxidants out of all teas ! It even beats matcha in this category ! It’s a very health boosting drink 🌺❤️
I was looking for the health benefits. Thanks
Bonus fact did you know a tea isn't a true tea unless it has tea leaf. If a beverage doesn't have tea leaf in it it's not considered a tea, but a tincture. All actual tea is derived from the same plant, however when these plants are harvested and the region of where they are grown can give a different flavor. My fiance knows soooo much about tea and I think that's why this person said "like a hibiscus tea" because this tincture doesn't have actual tea :)
@@houndgirl7365 I mean- you can make a blend with both can you not
Actually a Yoruba herb that's also called kporokporo oka baba is the highest
wow really? You made my day.
It's called 'sorrel' in Jamaica. Ginger, cloves, and sugar is added to make a refreshing drink. Some persons add rum/ alcohol. Normally drink around Christmas time
It’s no sorrel I know it resembles sorrel but it’s not it’s dry hibiscus it taste nothing like sorrel.
@@LivingMyBestAlways its definitely dried sorrel. even after it's boiled, it forms back to original state. growing up in the Caribbean, we dried the sorrel to store it and this is it. dried hibiscus doesn't look like this, although you can blend hibiscus leaves and flowers for natural shampoo.
@@LivingMyBestAlways It absolutely is sorrel. Sorrel is what we call the hibiscus flower and the resulting drink in most places in the Caribbean. In some places outside the Caribbean, it is called hibiscus, bissap or zobo, but they are all the same flower using a variety of ingredients to make a similar drink or tea.
I thought it was sorrel when I saw it
welll in my country and west africa in general, we don’t mix hibiscus with ginger.. ginger has its specific drink as well that is commonly known as « ginger beer »
As a jamaican, this is called "Sorrel". Usually served during Christmas
@@dwayner901 no one cares. We're taking bout Mexico, not you refugees lol
@@rockysalvatore435 don’t be disrespectful and also Mexico isn’t the only place hibiscus is found in the world
@@rockysalvatore435sorrel and hibiscus are two different plants, this isn’t about the country, why do you have so much Mexican pride?
@@rockysalvatore435Yet, y'all got it from these "refugees"
@@dwayner901 I didn't know it was the same in grenada
Here in Sudan it’s called Karkadé. It’s a very popular drink especially during the holy month of Ramadan.
With cinnamon 😋
Hey sis ... I'm glad I'm not the only Sudanese here..😇
If only they try the rest of our delicious national drinks such as Hilw-Morr, gongolaiz ... not sure if I spelled them right 😅
@@albalsamkaliim6604does this drink contain any sugar naturally ?
The same in Egypt, we call it karkade or enab in Arabic عناب
It is almost here, may all my Muslim sisters and brothers here get to enjoy the beautiful month and get closer to Allah subhanahu wa ta'alla.
For any artists, if you use this as a watercolor it turns into a different color after you paint it’s so beautiful
Oh wooooow that sounds like a cool idea ❤
Turns bluish
I work in a Mexican restaurant and this drink is very popular there. I like to add a splash of lime juice to brighten the flavor as this drink has a deep tone in flavor without it. ❤️
We Ghanaians we called it sobolo and it’s very good and healthy ❤
We call it Zobo in Nigeria🇳🇬
And we also add ginger and pineapple when boiling it
Edit: thanks for the likes and please follow me Thank you
Exactly what I thought about!!!!!
That sounds awesome! I'll try it.
Im South African, there's a Nigerian lady that sells it. Love it
we call it zobo in Zambia🇿🇲 too🙏🏿
Then that’s not the same drink.
It's called Zobo in Nigeria 🇳🇬. We make it most times by adding other flavors to it like pineapple juice, ginger, Cloves. Very nice and refreshing
Wow, adding pineapple juice sounds delightful.
I would definitely try it 👍
@@Chuck_00 it does taste good. ☺️
@@Chuck_00Yeah the stuffs amazing! I try it almost everytime when I get the chance to buy it.
Glad to see a fellow Nigerian here. 😂 you can be out of Nigeria but Nigeria can never leave you 🇳🇬
Yeah they make it in Togo too
In Mauritania 🇲🇷, Senegal 🇸🇳 and neighboring countries its called Mbissam/ Bissap. Its mostly drinked in Ramadhan and special times.
Yeh
Benin 🇧🇯 here I can confirm
In Egypt it’s Karkidih🇪🇬
Guy from Burkina Faso 🇧🇫 here so true
@@derpycat9140 🇧🇯🤝
Mmmm!! This is also very popular beverage in most Arab countries, and we call it Carkadé.. it's healthy and really refreshing the body after breaking our fast during the month of Ramadan ❤️
I'm half Sudanese n we call this "Karkade". My family likes making Banana milk smoothie and adding a bit of Karkade, and honestly ITS THE BEST!!
In my neck of the woods, it's also called karkade. Must be because we've learned about it from you guys! I've never thought of making a smoothie out of it, we normally just drink it like straight tea.
Please tell me more about this banana milk smoothie!
@@lllaaauuurrraaa Tho I'm not sure about the measurements since my grandpa makes it n he just eyeballs everything 😂 but it's just whole milk mixed with bananas, a bit of sugar, powdered milk n he also likes adding Guava sometimes. Serve it cold n top it with a bit of homemade cold hibiscus tea(karkade) n that's it! 😋
@@scorseve it's not exactly a smoothie, it's more like just adding it to ur smoothie 😆
@@JayJayKunn ahh, oops :D
Still sounds good!
Today we will be making Jamaica Kulfi. Kulfi is a popular frozen dessert in Pakistan and is basically like ice cream
Saturdays are my cheat days
This doesn’t sound too bad lol 😅
Sounds good tbh
This or orchata kulfi.
And you know it's my cheat day
How to make Jamaica kulfi 😂
You know it's my cheat day!
That would be quite good though
there are actually Ice popsicles of Jamaica, they’re pretty good
YOU'RE MADMAN.
The country Jamaica
Let's start with adding milk heavy cream milk solids and sweet condensed milk and your land mass of Jamaica freshly bought from the Caribbean shop into a blender
Yes this drink is popular in Mexico, but if you dont add sugar it's going to be bitter, so you have to add sugar! Ty for making this!!
45th like
?
Even if you add sugar, IT WILL STILL BE VERY SOUR. BE WARNED, IT IS GOOD WHEN YOU EXPECT IT.
@@candiedcrusader7841 it's not that sour
can you use honey or syrup?
I love reading all the different names for this in other countries! I've only known it as Sorrel in Jamaica 🥰
❤️THANK YOU for posting this! Here’s some great nutritional value many don’t know about Jamaica:
1. It’s a great diuretic and will carry out extra fluids and toxins from the body.
2. Because of the high level of acid in Jamaica it is good for weight loss (acid absorbs carbohydrate starches and sugars). If you want to lose weight then replace the sugar with STEVIA.
3. Speaking of losing weight, you can use this as a sports drink to replenish your body fluids. Again if using for weight loss and weight maintenance limit the sugar or use STEVIA.
* I personally do not use sugar in my diet at all. If I use sugar of any kind I use STEVIA, that’s my personal preference. I keep an ALKALINE diet.
** Sugar is highly acidic which attracts and breeds cancer cells.
4. Jamaica is also known to prevent cancer because it’s acid called Protacatechuic which is an antioxidant agent.
5. It lowers cholesterol.
6. It controls blood pressure.
7. It has lots of good Vitamin C! 😊
This drink is a great summer drink and many lose weight drinking it because it’s a great diuretic, but again control the amount sugar you put in it. It is rather bitter of you don’t put sugar in it. You can squeeze LIME into it for added DETOXIFICATION of the body and more benefits.
Thank you for sharing that information, was waiting to hear the benefits of it
@@pamelad6765 You’re very welcome!
I’m from Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa and Damn we love this drink, you can literally get it everywhere,
but we call it “Bissap”
Shalom!
I only know this drink as a Jamaican thing. I made it for some guests who were from Cote d'Ivoire, and they were like BISSAP 😍 and they loved it. Made me so happy 😊
It’s called Bissap in West Africa francophone countries. I’m from Guinea. 😊
❤🇨🇮 Humm!! Le Bissap de chez nous koi!!!
@@os4908 Tu saches
Im from Jamaica, we call it ‘Sorrel’, we usually add sugar, sometimes wine & wray & nephew rum. We usually drink it around Christmas time with other treats like Rum cake, Its delicious.
Making me hungry lol
Yes in Trinidad and Tobago we make the same thing, call it Sorrel too
I think other Caribbean islands make it as well
We share similar traditions and foods across the Caribbean ✊💜
it is called Sobolo or Bissap in Ghana.
It’s called Bissap in Guinea too!
This looks like an Egyptian drink called Karkarde. You can drink it hot or iced.
The best hibiscus flower grows in Sudan.
It keeps you cool, known to lower blood pressure, is high in vitamin C, and has other health benefits.
A company from Jordan named BARAKA sells bottles of really beautiful, clean, whole, fancy hibiscus flowers I think they're even too perfectly formed to make them get soggy in water!
In ghana we call it Sobolo. We add spices, pineapple, ginger and cloves. So yummmy!
This is called Zobo in Nigeria 🇳🇬. It’s usually boiled along with some ginger and pineapple then chilled. Extremely refreshing
Sobolo in Ghana
Been looking for this comment😂😂
I was also looking for this comment!
Omo I been Dey doubt am
nah zobo oh
Oooo I didn’t know that! Thanks!
It’s a popular drink in Africa and the Caribbean as well. In west africa Ghanaians drink this. Nigerians call the drink Zobo juice in The Gambia it’s called “Wanjo” in Senegal it’s called Bissap & in Sudan (North east Africa) they consume it as a tea but I’m not sure the name for it over there. The English speaking Caribbean islands call it Sorrel. Moral of the story is that this drink is not just consumed in Mexico but great video 😊
Now tell us who has the best jollof rice!!😂
This is very popular in egypt as well, specially in happy occasions, like weddings or engagements, it resembles happy times here, also popular just at home with some snacks, we drink it also both cold and hot, its pretty nice
This is called “Zobo” in Nigeria. We usually add more things like pineapples, lemon rings to add more flavor. I prefer it warm tho
In Nigeria, I add pineapple and date extract for sweetness. Ginger, garlic, cinnamon for the kick.
Very healthy.
Garlic!!!!!!! In a zobo drink? Where! That's not possible!
@Onye Kachi in my kitchen. I do that often and will never try it any other way.
In Jamaica we call it sorrel . Traditionally it’s made around Christmas time . Sometimes it’s made with liquor .
This bwoi is a fool. I love it made with plenty of fresh ginger, a little clove, some rum or red wine. Let it stand for a few days. Serve really chilled. Delicious.
All Jamaicans make it with alcohol, unless you have to cater for children
I'm a chef from Mexico, and I can confirm that the cooking was absolutely brilliant
Correct me if I'm wrong, but he should just steep it for 30 mins otherwise it will be too bitter, no?
@@okaar yes it will be bitter
Thanks Chef!! From Houston Tx
@@okaar Dude, you’ve saved me. I couldn’t possibly for the life of me wonder why it was bitter. I absolutely love you.
In Nigeria, we add cloves, ginger and pineapple along with the peels to the hibiscus flowers, boil. Sweeten once cooled down. Chill. It's the best refreshing drink.
Zobo😂❤
Thank you! I have hibiscus tea in bags and enjoy it hot. Look forward to making it iced this coming summer.
Folks, this plant is all over the world. I was in Egypt and they serve that drink there as well. It’s loaded with loads of different vitamins and minerals . Add ginger and cloves when you boil it and it’s even more delicious.🙏🏼😍
We also make it in Arabic countries but we call it “Karkadei . كركدي”
Im pretty sure thats where its originally from, its an ancient Egyptian thing.
Edit: we still make this regularly during holidays and celebrations
Yeah sudan during ramadan especially
I am a Pakistani and I understood what you wrote in arabic
@Choco BG ( P.G.A ) well urdu is just an arabic Chinese copy
@@kimmy01 no it's from Senegal
We call it Sorrel in Trinidad 🇹🇹 😅 it’s usually made around Christmas time
it's actually not sorrel
@@spudseekerit is
True dawgg
@@toxxiic_shivagaming sorry I was thinking of something else
@@spudseeker no worries
In Jamaica we call this drink Sorrel. It is usually made during the Christmas season ❤
This is not sorrel I know it look like sorrel. I know sorrel I’m from the Caribbean it’s dry hibiscus.
We have in Egypt its name is karkadeh, and it is a beautiful drink and it is very popular, especially at the iftar table during the month of Ramadan 🌺
My grandmother is Trinidadian and calls it sorrel. She also adds clove to hers
Yes I make mine w cinnamon n allspice
this is interesting because when i was a kid, we used to grind hibiscus flowers and used them to make bubbles 😂
Sorrel to the world!!! This drink is also popular in Trinidad and Tobago, especially at Christmas time.
Add cloves ,grated ginger and a bay leaf to deepen the flavor.
Had this when I visited Egypt… delicious
In Cameroon 🇨🇲 we call this folere and it slaps love this stuff 😊
We make it so well! Especially the street one!
You can actually leave the flower and eat along with your drink for extra fiber. Really good with lime for an extra refreshing taste. We drink it in the summer the most. Anf you’ll see it at every Mexican restaurant!
It's very popular in West Africa too. I'm from Nigeria. We call it Zobo here. And apart from sugar, we also add a little ginger for a slight sting and lots of fruits for flavours ❤️❤️
This is called “zobo” in Nigeria 🇳🇬, we add variety of fruits including dates for flavor and sweetness
Jamaica 🇯🇲 is a popular drink in Mexico 🇲🇽
🤣
They make this stuff at my local Mexican restaurant/latin market.
It’s AWESOME. Kinda tastes like Chicha Morada (Peruvian purple corn drink) or like black cherry with a hint of white grape or apple.
In Egypt it’s called karkadaih كركديه
We have that in southern Morocco its called bisam and its made exactly the same way
In Jamaica we call that sorrel, and it's made slightly different and with alcohol in it.
I thought it was sorrel too, but look closer at the flowers. Its a different plant
@@MelisaMunroelemme educate u kuz u prolly know nothing abt sorrel. we in the carribean call dried hibiscus flower sorrel but there is also another green plant called sorrel and the name gets people confused.
@@MelisaMunroe sorrel has dried hibiscus as the main ingredient. It’s the same thing with different ingredients added
@@xx_itzdemolisher_xx You can't even spell Caribbean
@@xx_itzdemolisher_xx The way you spelt the second pronounciation literally proves my point
It’s called sobolo in Ghana.Some churches use it for communion.U can add the back of pineapple,cloves and ginger
Whenever my mother made this she’d leave the flowers not strain them🇲🇽❤
My mom does the same. Also with agua de piña. What’s up with Mexican moms not straining drinks? 😅
In Nigeria we use the white version for soup and the red for Zobo drink.
This is called Bissap in Cameroon, I love how we're all connected 😁
This is also very popular in Gambia 🇬🇲
We call it a sorrel flower and the drink is called wonjo in Gambia
We also add mint leaves to improve the taste
not just mexico! all of latin america loves jamaica :)
But Mexico does it best
@@frisco9568 Viva la Raza 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Horchata better though
@@frisco9568 a huevo
@@frisco9568lies you tell
Jamaica is a very popular drink in Central America and the Caribbean possibly even in South America, but to see other countries talk about it is fascinating…😄
I might be wrong but to my bias, Trinidadian knowledge it started in Trinidad. It's just boiled Sorrel flower water. We call it Sorrel and we also boil it with cloves.
It’s called agua de Jamaica in Mexico and thus this is its name in the US too
There are some cultures across the world that have their own original version, native to themselves. An example of that is bissap. It's delicious, but we don't make it like a tea where my family comes from. Also, depending on your location, different breeds of this flower is used 🙂
Steeping dried flowers, herbs, or tea is universal since thousands of years ago.
It's made throughout Africa and the Arab world...long b4 new world countries.
It started in West Africa and spreaded
Looks similar to sorrel drink we make in jamaca. We add ginger to it and some add rum too.
Action Bronson beat 😎🔥
why the hell is no one else commenting this
Funny, I was just cleaning my pantry and I found my hibiscus tea flowers. I was like, should inkeep it or not. I'm glad that I did as I made the Jamaica with pinaples and ginger. Lovely! Thank you!
This is the best drink I’ve ever had. It’s so refreshing yet tasty.
I love this drink 🍹 thank you for sharing the recipe.
It’s called ‘flor de Jamaica’ or ‘Jamaica flower’ in Mexico. In Jamaica we call it ‘Sorrel’. It is actually a variety of Hibiscus, and it looks like tiny okras on the plant. It comes in four colours that I know of. A dark red/purple, red, pink and pale green. Each makes a slightly different flavour of the beverage. It is very acidic! It must be made in a non- reactive container like glass or stainless steel. In Jamaica this is steeped with dried spices (cloves, cinnamon, bay, orange peel, star anise etc) and fresh ginger and served at Christmas. It can also be made into a sauce or chutney similar to cranberry sauce.
In Nigeria, we add cloves, ginger, lots of pineapple including the peel, cucumber(and other fruits if you want). The fruits serves as the sweetener…Absolutely divine! We call it zobo here
It sounds delicious.
I just made some last night and drank it this morning. It's so good and you can make it many ways. I added cinnamon, allspice and raw honey, it was so refreshing . I made another batch with frozen mixed berries and lemon and sugar. Soooo good ! Don't need a lot sweetener because the Hibiscus is naturally sweet ❤❤❤❤❤.
Fact: Drinking Hibiscus Tea on a regular basis actually lowers your blood pressure. I was drinking it alot a few years ago. When I went to the doctor, my BP was 109/70. That's the lowest it ever was and I was surprised. Now a drink it all the time...I love it !
You actually said it right, most people say it
“Hum-Aye-Kuh”
My parents used to drink this because it was said to be a good supplement for weight loss, which is obviously not effective (I think they didn't add the sugar cuz that would cancel it out but as I said, even like that it is just a superstition). It's called Jamaica because in Spanish, the flower is called Flor de Jamaica (Flower of Jamaica or Jamaican Flower/Jamaica Flower).
Btw, the music you used on the background is salsa, and salsa is not Mexican, it's from the Caribbean (specifically from Cuba and popularized by Cubans and Puertoricans). Just a thought. I love your videos! 🤗
No sirve como adelgazante, como mucho es diuretico xD
@@jannylane3254 oh, sí, lo sé. Por eso dije que es una superstición que la gente se inventa para no cambiar su dieta 😆😁
He is blending the entire country into a drink 😭🇯🇲
In Mexico, they call the DRINK Jamaica.
It's amazing how people all over the world drink this. almost identically. looks delicious.
We call it karkadeh in middle east. It is one of the official drinks in Ramadan. Love it
Been craving this
In West Africa, specifically Nigeria, its called Zobo. Really good, refreshing drink
Agua de jamaica is bomb for those who don’t know in Central America it is also a very popular drink
Yeah, I'm from the Domincan Republic, they have it there, and I go to Mexico a lot and they have it there too
the seamlessness of the loop and the colour of the tea is highly satisfying
My favorite. 😊 And the lime and cucumber.
We call it zobo in Nigeria 🇳🇬
Ooh very cool
Zob in Iraqi Arabic means penis
exactly my bro
@@samiraliraqi92 oh god 🫢😂
Senegalese people call it bissap can be mixed with mint leaves or with drops of strawberry 🍓 extract
"Hey , what are you making?"
"Oh just some 🇯🇲"
"Bro WHAT-🤨"
Bro I absolutely LOVE Jamaica/Hibiscus Iced tea it’s just so refreshing. especially on a hot day
I have tried it and it's one of the best refreshing drinks.
This drink is so good they named an entire country after it
😂😂😂😂
the other way around but yes 😂
@@sunnyblossom_711 woooosh
Beautiful drink love hibiscus tea 🌺
I absolutely love hibiscus tea🌺 ♥️
This is a really really good tea I used to suffer a lot of bladder infections in my twenties into my early 30s I learned how to make this tea from mother-in-law who is Mexican I got to tell you this is the best thing you can do.
We have it in Egypt too!! We call it “karkadeh” كركديه It’s literally the same recipe and I love it. We specifically have it during Ramadan as one of many drinks we break our fast on. It’s especially exquisite after refrigerating it overnight 🤤
Hey thats easy!!😊thank you for sharing!!
I love Jamaica it's always been one of my fav drinks thanks 🙏
Grew up drinking this. Trinidadians call it Sorrel. same name Jamaicans call it. We like to add angostura bitters, star anise, cloves and sugar.
It has many health benefits also.
Wherever it grows, the people have found ways to use it. Its not just a Jamaican thing. When we were lil my aunt's Hawaiian colleagues made it for us all the time
It’s amazing to see different places have different names for it.. ❤️ it..
Hi thanks for sharing Here’s how I drink hibiscus, we call it sorrel in Jamaica. Put sorrel in water, when it comes to a boil turn stove off and allow to steep. Strain mix with sugar and ginger root I add pimento seeds just a few. You can add rum to it and add some ice.
In Egypt, this is known as Karkadeh. ❤
I love to add a little lime juice for a citrus kick!
As a Mexican, we use this method: add water to the pot then added hibiscus, let it steam to boil around 20-30 minutes. After that let it cool down at least 2-3 hours or just put ice on it. Then we add water to dilute it ( depends how much less bitterness you want or more ) then last you add sugar ( again it depends how much sweet you want )and voilà! Done! Congratulations you made your own Mexican Jamaica!
🌸 In Trinidad they make sorrel, you delicately cut away the petals avoiding the green cactus type prickly seed. Wash and boil it
It makes a wonderful drink, you have to put spices to taste while boiling such as cinnamon stick, cloves, cardamom etc
Then it’s a concentrated drink you add bit more water to & sugar or sweetener to taste. We do make hibiscus sauce, drink or soup.
The hibiscus grows in abundance in Trinidad & Tobago with different varieties 🇹🇹
My favorite 😍 I make it a lot at home
This is very famous in Panamá too!
